[QUOTE="JayKay, post: 318038, member: 324"] Much to my dismay, I broke the tip off my favorite, last year. Took it back to Scheels, with the receipt. Stood there sheepishly, with my hat in my hand, kinda hoping I might get a new rod out of the deal. It was no longer under warranty. I know, I know - I broke it myself. It was no manufacturer's defect. I think I stepped on it. I've heard stories though, about "replaced - no questions asked". That wasn't the case for me. They took the rod, glued on a new cheap tip, and I went on my way. Still works plenty well. Anyhow, my point is, is there a better way to fix a rod tip, than just gluing on a nasty-@ss 49 cent tip? It's too big, the wrong color, and bothers me. The rod is my only "good" one. A Loomis that was $250-ish. I know they make much more highly-priced models, but it's the best one I own, and my absolute favorite. [/QUOTE]
